The Seduction of Mrs Pendlebury - Softcover
Rose and Stanley Pendlebury, ageing and alone in their unrenovated London house have a relationship based on mutual tolerance. Rose finds the whole world an offence. Until gradually, reluctantly, she allows her new, upwardly mobile, neighbours - especially their lovely toddler Amy - to prove that she is not too old for friendship and hope.

Review:
"She charts real people and touches her harridan with genuine pathos...nothing of hers that I have read has satisfied like The Seduction of Mrs Pendlebury" (Guardian)
"Margaret Forster's heroine is quite unforgettable... Often splendidly funny... In an admirably unpretentious way Forster has written a painfully convincing tragic-comedy" (Nina Bawden Daily Telegraph)
